Stumped!

My main concern for CWC5 is that we will need to manually maintain a points table - I don't want the final standings to be decided by how badly you smash the bot. I've done this for CWC1 before but it was a much smaller comp, I'll have a think on how I can put together an excel file that automates this process.

@cnerd123 - I generated fixtures for a comp with just my 2 sides in it effectively to test generating fixtures part of things given I couldn't delete the comp at this point - this was the comp where it was set at 1 game a week. One thing I've noticed is there is a column to adjust results - no games played in this comp so far so don't know exactly how it works in practice but might be able to use this feature instead of manually maintaining a points table?

I don't know if anyone has done this before, but I was thinking last night after Michael Winton went for a duck off the bowling of Jamil Gul...he was a former Moo CC player. How many players are out there in CW teams that were part of a fellow CW team?

I have...

Michael Winton (Moo CC) to Ataraxia CC
Richard McCormack (Dynamo Morpork) to Mooo CC
Keith Tindall (Moo CC) to GG CC
Mark Jardine (GG CC) to Moo CC
Aat Bernstein (GG CC) to Moo CC
Asanka Arasaratnam (Moo CC) to GG CC
Michael Winton (Moo CC) to Ataraxia CC
Richard McCormack (Dynamo Morpork) to Mooo CC
Keith Tindall (Moo CC) to GG CC
Mark Jardine (GG CC) to Moo CC
Aat Bernstein (GG CC) to Moo CC
Asanka Arasaratnam (Moo CC) to GG CC
Prabath Margenout (1 season with the TMOs) currently at Dynamo Morpork
Jalal Farhat (2 seasons with TMOs, maybe 3) currently at Dynamo Schmaltzberg
Matt Lang (spent a month at Winton, joined Ashgrove Astronauts in mid November 2021)

Vaguely irrelevant, but I happened to make a main vs affiliate competition that starts on the same date (today). The fixtures for that have been generated now; I clicked the generate button 20.00 yesterday Stumped! time; I haven't been online since 23.00. I imagine the fixtures should generate soon.

Robust discussion about the future of the game on the forum. Broadly agree with all comments -- perhaps the season could be condensed to 10–13 weeks?

Ehtisham Ghous: incredible. Hlengwa replacement with bat to boot. Remi Kaiser of AXI might have a truncated National career!

I see Saeed Awan's on the TM. Very tempting to buy.

Responding to top paragraph, still hasn't generated - I did see a post somewhere - I think on the forum saying it took until next day - 24 hours would be about 7 or so hours from the time of writing. Wonder if it is effected by number of fixtures. As yeah when I generated fixtures for comp with just my 2 sides - can't recall exactly how long it took and was away from Stumped for a little while before I checked and saw it had generated but pretty sure it was substantially less than 24 hours then too.

Ok Thanks, was a lot longer than one day but yeah it popped up almost 24 hours ago the button to generate fixtures - recall it was just before 1am UK time/12am Stumped Time that the option was there - so hopefully something happens in the next 15mins or so

4th June through to 3rd August for the group stages, after which we organise the KOs on our own. Lovely. ZCC have stocked up on Time-Turners so we will be able to field full-strength XIs in both the CWC and the League T20 matches on Wednesdays :ph34r: Timings work out a lot more nicely for FHK.

@JOJOXI I'll work on a google sheet for points table over the weekend. All Stumped lets you do is edit the outcome (win/loss). We'll need to manually track NRR.
